BEGINNER'S GUIDE to Ordering Chicks Online & Receiving in Mail -My Experience with Mail Order Chicks

This video is a beginner’s guide to ordering chicks from a hatchery online and receiving them in the mail. I share my experience ordering chicks online from Chicken Outfitter (Mt Healthy Hatchery) and what you should expect.

That's great 👍

[@justinsane7128]

Good advice.... It's fun to get a small incubator and hatch them too.

Hello Jamelyn, thank you for sharing this with us. I love your videos. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓

Be careful what you feed them

[@nikkistump3480]

Don’t give your chickens any food from Purina. Your chickens will not lay eggs.

[@Cowboy340]

I agree. If you’ve ever raised dogs or cats you’ll realize Purina has ALWAYS been way behind the 8 ball. Heavy Grain based foods for dogs and cats are wrong. Corporate greed dictates Purina. Buy small business feeds for quality

Ordering from a hatchery ahead of time is also a great way to prevent impulse buying at the store. Ask me how I know! HA!

[@backyarddino]

haha!

None of the agriculture shops here have chicks, but I have a chicken in a bucket sitting on eggs lol, so I might get free chick's 😉
